OF  THE 

EXECUTIVE  COMMITTEE  AND  TREASURER 

OF  THE 

NEW  YORK  BRIDGE  COMPANY, 

1872. 


The  Executive  Committee  respectfully  present  their 
Annual  Report : 

Under  the  authority  conferred  upon  them  by  resolu- 
tion of  the  Board,  they  have  continued  with  the  construc- 
tion of  the  bridge  for  the  past  year  as  rapidly  as  cir- 
cumstances permitted.  The  Tower  on  the  Brooklyn 
side  has  been  carried  up  to  an  elevation  of  100  feet 
above  high  water,  and  is  progressing  steadily  upward. 
The  foundation  of  the  Tower  on  the  New  York  side  of 
the  river  has  been  sunk  to  its  final  depth  of  about  80 
feet,  and  is  so  far  advanced  that  in  the  course  of  a 
mouth  more  it  will,  if  no  accidents  intervene  to  prevent 
it,  be  filled  in  and  finished  to  above  high  water  mark. 
For  the  history  and  progress  of  the  work  during  the  year, 
they  refer  with  great  satisfaction  to  the  report  of  the 
Chief  Engineer,  W.  A.  Roebling,  Esq.,  now  presented. 
For  the  financial  condition  of  the  Company  they  refer 
to  the  statements  hereto  appended,  showing  the  re- 
ceipts and  expenditures  of  the  Company  in  detail  from
